The Trade Hiding in Plain Sight

Here’s something you should see…

When you work with a team full of some of the best traders in the business, it doesn’t take long before someone uncovers something so simple… so repeatable… and so effective, it forces me to stop what I’m doing and pay attention.

That’s exactly what happened when Thomas Wood showed me the Opening Bell Trade he’s been using to pull triple‑digit wins out of the market before most investors have even poured their second cup of coffee.

I’m talking about real trades that have delivered gains like:

113% on GOOGL
240% on META
70% on CAG
37% on MCD
139% on GLD

And here’s the part most people will never believe until they see it for themselves:

It’s one setup.
One pattern.
One repeatable moment that appears almost every morning.

By 10 AM, he’s done.

Most investors spend their entire lives chasing complicated systems, expensive software, or some mythical “perfect” strategy.

Meanwhile, the real edge—the one hiding in plain sight—has been sitting right at the market open.

We just finished putting everything about this breakthrough into a new report called The Opening Bell Trade Guide. It explains the setup, the timing, and why this window of the trading day continues to produce outsized opportunities for regular investors.

Right now, you can download it for free.

But let me be blunt: we won’t keep it free forever. At some point, we may charge for it—because information like this should cost money.

So do yourself a favor and grab your copy now, while the link still works:

Key Points

  • CooperCompanies insiders bought shares in late 2025, highlighting a value opportunity that has reemerged in early 2026.
  • Analysts and institutions are accumulating this stock, and have its price set up to reverse course as the year progresses.
  • Capital returns, specifically share buybacks, provide leverage and increase value for investors, underpinning a robust outlook for a stock price rebound.
  • Special Report: The Biggest IPO Ever: Claim Your Stake Today

CooperCompanies (NASDAQ: COO) insiders signaled confidence in the company's growth outlook by buying shares in December, extending a trend that began the month before. Insiders — including the CEO, several directors, and other C-suite executives — bought shares while the stock was trading at long-term lows, helping catalyze a rebound, but the story is not over.

COO pulled back in early March after an otherwise healthy earnings report, offering another potential entry point. Headwinds remain, but the long-term outlook is constructive, supported by growth prospects, improving profitability, and steady capital returns.

The table went quiet… [my meeting with Tether Gold] (Ad)

A major force in the crypto world is quietly becoming one of gold's most aggressive buyers — and most investors have no idea it's happening.

A longtime gold analyst says profits from a leading stablecoin operation are being funneled into physical gold at a scale that could materially impact supply and demand. After a recent meeting with insiders, he began outlining what this trend could mean for gold prices and a small group of companies positioned to benefit.

CooperCompanies is well-positioned to drive growth and cash flow as a leading consumer-focused medical device company. It operates across two main segments: vision and women's/family health. The vision segment is best known for contact lenses that are consistently ranked among the top three globally. The women's health division is a recognized player in contraception, fertility and gynecology. Long-term forecasts project mid- to moderate single-digit revenue growth through the middle of the next decade, with earnings growth tracking slightly higher.

Capital Returns Keep Analysts and Institutions Interested in COO Stock

CooperCompanies' capital-return program consists entirely of share repurchases. They are substantial and appear sustainable, which increases leverage for existing shareholders. Fiscal Q1 2026 buyback activity, combined with repurchases in prior quarters, drove a nearly 2.25% year-over-year (YOY) decline in share count, with the repurchase pace expected to continue in upcoming quarters.

The balance sheet shows no red flags and supports the buy thesis. Quarter-ending highlights included higher cash and total assets, lower debt and liabilities, and higher equity despite aggressive repurchases. Equity rose by about 1.5%, and leverage remains very low, suggesting the company has flexibility to execute its strategy: expand product lines and pursue targeted acquisitions. CooperCompanies has a track record of selectively acquiring high-quality, niche products that complement its core segments.

Analysts' coverage reflects confidence in the business, resulting in a Moderate Buy rating. Although one Sell rating is on record, the consensus is broadly positive — roughly 50% Buy and 49% Hold — with analyst coverage increasing on a trailing-12-month basis and the price target firming after the March earnings update. As of early March, consensus implies about 25% upside from recent lows; a move toward the $90 consensus target would likely set a new long-term high, clear key resistance and complete a market reversal.

Technical Reversal Is in Play: Head-and-Shoulders Reversal Underway

While the pattern is not yet complete, COO's price action — together with its solid fundamentals — suggests a head-and-shoulders reversal may be forming. The first shoulder appeared in early 2025, the head formed mid-year, and now a second shoulder looks to be taking shape. There is a risk the market could drift lower and test support near $70 or $65, but that outcome seems less likely given the company's outlook, cash flow and capital-return profile.

Institutional trends add to the bullish case. Holdings remain relatively light at roughly 25%, but institutions are accumulating shares and activity is ramping up. Selling has increased alongside buying, however, which may keep volatility elevated until another catalyst emerges. One potential catalyst is the conclusion of the strategic review started last year; its completion would likely reduce uncertainty and boost market interest.

CooperCompanies Retreats After Solid Report

CooperCompanies reported a solid Q1, with both revenue and adjusted EPS beating consensus. A modest gross-margin contraction — partly attributable to tariffs — was offset by operational improvements and disciplined execution, resulting in margin expansion on the bottom line. Adjusted earnings grew by nearly 20% for the quarter and are likely to continue outpacing estimates as the year progresses. Guidance was nudged higher versus the prior outlook but remains conservative. Momentum in newer product lines like MyDay and MiSight, which help slow the progression of myopia in children, underpins the outlook.

Cooper Companies (COO) stock chart shows pullback toward support, suggesting a possible second shoulder pattern.

5 Stocks Racing Ahead as AI Supercharges Robotics

Written by Ryan Hasson. Originally Published: 3/2/2026.

AI brain linked to EV, tractor, chip wafer, and surgical robot, highlighting cross-sector AI adoption and demand.

Key Points

  • Artificial intelligence is accelerating robotics innovation, enabling faster training, greater autonomy, and real-time adaptability across industries.
  • Companies like Tesla, NVIDIA, Deere, Teradyne, and Intuitive Surgical are embedding AI directly into machines, compressing development cycles and expanding real-world applications.
  • As AI scales globally, robotics is shifting from incremental automation to intelligent systems, creating long-term structural growth opportunities across multiple sectors.
  • Special Report: The Biggest IPO Ever: Claim Your Stake Today

Robotics has steadily gained traction over the past decade, but the last five years have marked a clear inflection point. Adoption across industrial, defense, healthcare, logistics, and even consumer applications has accelerated meaningfully. The primary catalyst behind this shift is artificial intelligence.

AI is not just enhancing robotics; it is fundamentally redefining it.

Silicon Valley Bank was just a warning (Ad)

In 2023, Silicon Valley Bank collapsed in just 48 hours with panicked customers draining $42 billion in a single day, but it could be nothing compared to what's coming next—through Federal Reserve Docket No. OP-1670, the government is rolling out FedNow, an instant 24/7 payment hub that over 1,500 banks have already connected to, and when money moves at the speed of light, a modern bank run won't take days. By routing every transaction through a single centralized hub, the Fed is building the ultimate kill switch for the American banking system, and when the next financial crisis hits, the Federal Reserve could instantly freeze all transfers, withdrawals, and payments nationwide to protect the system, trapping your life savings inside.

Machine learning, computer vision, and generative AI are transforming robots from rigid, pre-programmed machines into adaptive systems capable of learning, reasoning, and operating autonomously. Breakthroughs that once took years of incremental improvement are now occurring in compressed timeframes.

Generative AI lets robots train in simulated environments at high speed rather than relying solely on physical trial and error. Instead of programming every movement manually, developers can expose robots to millions of virtual scenarios in a fraction of the time. Natural language interfaces also allow workers to instruct machines conversationally, dramatically reducing deployment friction.

In short, AI is acting as an accelerant across the robotics landscape, pushing both capability and commercialization forward at a faster pace. These five stocks are advancing more rapidly as a direct result of AI integration.

Tesla: From Autonomous Vehicles to Humanoid Robots

Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) may be best known as an electric-vehicle manufacturer, but at its core it is arguably one of the world's most visible consumer-facing robotics companies.

Its autonomous vehicles are effectively mobile robots operating in uncontrolled real-world environments. Tesla's Full Self-Driving system relies on neural networks trained on billions of miles of driving data. That AI backbone also powers Optimus, its humanoid robot initiative.

Optimus is designed to perform repetitive, dangerous, or labor-intensive tasks across factories, warehouses, and eventually households. It uses computer vision, reinforcement learning, and Tesla's custom AI chips to interpret surroundings and navigate complex environments. The breakthrough lies not just in mechanical engineering but in the software stack that allows Optimus to learn and improve over time.

CEO Elon Musk has described Optimus as potentially more transformative than Tesla's vehicle business in the long run. The company is targeting mass production of millions of units annually, with a projected consumer price point between $20,000 and $30,000.

Tesla recently announced plans to wind down production of its high-end Model S and Model X lines to free up factory capacity for a dedicated Optimus assembly line. That strategic pivot signals confidence that AI-powered robotics could become a central pillar of the company's future growth.

NVIDIA: The Computing Backbone of Robotics

NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) is the most obvious AI beneficiary, and its impact on robotics runs deeper than headline GPU demand suggests.

Advanced robotics requires massive computing resources for perception, localization, mapping, and decision-making. Without high-performance processors capable of running complex neural networks in real time, modern robotics would stall.

NVIDIA's Jetson platform is purpose-built for edge AI and is widely deployed in robots, drones, and autonomous systems. These modules process visual, spatial, and sensor data locally, enabling low-latency decision-making—critical in environments where split-second reactions matter.

Beyond hardware, NVIDIA's Isaac robotics development platform lets engineers simulate robotic systems in photorealistic virtual environments. Developers can train robots in simulation before deploying them in the physical world, dramatically accelerating innovation cycles while lowering risk and cost.

As robotics systems grow more intelligent and autonomous, NVIDIA remains a foundational infrastructure provider: not merely participating in the growth of robotics, but enabling it.

Deere & Company: Smart Farming at Scale

Deere & Company (NYSE: DE) might surprise some investors on a robotics list, but the agricultural leader has quietly transformed into a technology-driven automation company.

Labor shortages, rising input costs, and the need for greater efficiency have pushed agriculture toward autonomy. Deere's fully autonomous 8R tractor can operate without a driver, using AI-powered computer vision and advanced GPS guidance to navigate fields with precision.

Following its acquisition of Blue River Technology, Deere launched its See & Spray system, which uses machine learning to distinguish crops from weeds in real time. Instead of blanket herbicide spraying, the system applies chemicals only where needed, reducing usage and improving environmental efficiency.

AI also powers Deere's broader ecosystem through the John Deere Operations Center, which aggregates farm data and delivers predictive analytics to optimize planting, harvesting, and maintenance decisions.

The company has effectively shifted from being a heavy-equipment manufacturer to a data-driven automation platform for agriculture. As AI models improve, productivity gains across farming operations could accelerate, reinforcing Deere's long-term positioning.

Teradyne: Testing the AI Revolution

Teradyne (NASDAQ: TER) sits at a critical junction of semiconductor complexity and industrial automation. As AI chips become more powerful, dense, and performance-sensitive, testing requirements intensify.

Teradyne's automated test equipment validates advanced semiconductors for data centers, autonomous systems, and robotics applications.

AI-driven demand has become a primary growth driver. In Q4 2025, the company reported EPS of $1.80, well above consensus, while revenue rose nearly 44% year over year to $1.08 billion. AI-related demand, including data center expansion, accounted for a majority of quarterly revenue.

Beyond semiconductor testing, Teradyne owns collaborative robotics businesses that manufacture industrial robotic arms and mobile robots. These systems increasingly incorporate AI to improve flexibility in factories and logistics centers.

With AI adoption scaling across industries, both chip testing and AI-enabled robotics solutions position Teradyne as a beneficiary of the broader automation wave—a classic picks-and-shovels play.

Intuitive Surgical: AI in the Operating Room

Intuitive Surgical (NASDAQ: ISRG) is a pioneer in robotic-assisted surgery and remains the global leader in minimally invasive procedures.

Its da Vinci Surgical System has already improved surgical precision by giving physicians enhanced visualization, dexterity, and control. Now, AI is deepening that advantage.

Rather than operating solely as a hardware manufacturer, Intuitive is building an intelligent surgical ecosystem. AI algorithms analyze intraoperative data in real time, enhance imaging clarity, and surface insights that help surgeons make more precise decisions.

The company's Ion endoluminal system, for example, uses AI-powered computer vision to navigate to difficult-to-reach lung nodules, compensating for discrepancies between pre-operative imaging and live anatomy. This improves diagnostic accuracy and patient outcomes.

As the installed base of robotic systems grows globally, the accumulation of surgical data further strengthens Intuitive's AI models. That flywheel effect could expand its competitive moat over time.

The Acceleration Effect

Robotics is not new. What is new is the velocity of innovation.

AI is compressing development timelines, improving adaptability, and broadening commercial use cases across nearly every sector. Whether in autonomous vehicles, agriculture, semiconductor testing, industrial automation, or operating rooms, AI is acting as a multiplier.

For investors, the theme is not simply robotics adoption, but robotics acceleration driven by AI integration.

These five companies sit at the forefront of that shift, advancing faster because intelligence is now embedded directly into the machines themselves.
